Work together to provide a simple standardized approach to cybersecurity verification and validation.

A 501(c)6 nonprofit, StateRAMP (dba GovRAMP) levels the playing field for private-sector organizations serving the public sector and reduces hassles for public institutions with strict cybersecurity requirements.

Governments Can Procure and Secure More Efficiently and Confidently with GovRAMP

Diverse government standards and significant data sprawl through cloud service providers complicate today’s security environment, leaving governments less secure than ever amidst increasing cyber threats. GovRAMP lets governments trust but verify service provider products, making procurement more efficient and data more secure.

Service Providers Can Improve Security and Simplify Compliance with GovRAMP

Meeting the complex security standards and supplying (and resupplying) documentation required by various government partners can be confusing, time consuming, and costly. GovRAMP offers transferable credentials through standardized cybersecurity verification, allowing providers to verify once and serve many.

Progressing Snapshot Program Updates

Effective January 1, 2026

Beginning January 1, 2026, the GovRAMP Progressing Snapshot Program will introduce new requirements to ensure every product on the Progressing Product List is actively advancing toward a verified status.
